Around SBN: Terry Collins, David Wright, And The Mets/Brewers Kerfuffle

Battle Red Radio - We're Like A Car Wreck on the Side of the Road

And you know you want to look.

Look, we forgot to do a fancily dancily post, so I'm just throwing this up there.  We're sure to talk about the Raiders game, the upcoming Giants game, Minnie Mouse's needs, and, dare I say, beer.

Here's the link, because I can't find the easier link.  DisplacedTexan is on the road, so we can't take calls tonight.  But DT, MDC, me, and Rivers will be piling onto the Express Train o' Texans Love.  Join us!

Listen here.

Post questions in the thread as I'll be keeping watch.

Are you this handsome and wonderful in real life?

A Texans fan. Really. No, I'm not kidding.

Hi!, bfd....

I agree on Mario pulling disappearing act. Seems he stands up and just arm wrestles. But I think it’s a matter that he can’t go full speed and he is really taking a down off, just trying to conserve his energy. Who is taking his place? At least he’s containing.

Arian Foster is a stud

He is top three RBs in the league right now. No one doubts that.

I dub the Giants..... New York City glamor-boys

by Rip Jersey on Oct 5, 2010 9:08 PM CDT reply actions  

I do

He’s playing well and all, but he’s not one of the 3 best NFL RBs… I really think people downplay the job our offensive linemen have done blocking for our rbs. The Texan RB with the lowest YPA is Slaton averaging 5.5 yards per rush, both Ward and Foster are averaging over 6…

by Bryan72076 on Oct 6, 2010 12:57 AM CDT up reply actions  

Yeah

Its a bit early to crown foster a top 3 nfl rb.

What do you think is the weakest part of the Giants defense?

Interested to hear this, because, I imagine the Texans are formulating an offensive scheme to try to take advantage of it. I might put out there that one of their weaknesses is over-pursuit…hint
